Who else thinks Primordial should play in Southie?[views:2828][posts:33]_______________________________ [Oct 25,2008 8:45pm - aril ""] Southie, or any other area in or around Boston. Boston has one of the highest percentages of people with Irish heritage in the country; I think it will be incredible if we got Ireland's greatest metal band over here to play. They BARELY play in America, are on Metalblade, and all of their releases or solid. http://www.myspace.com/falltoruin If anyone has the power to make this happen, or can at least try, please do so! Thanks |

| _______________________________ [Oct 26,2008 9:37am - aril ""] I can't believe they're doing a North American tour finally, after all these years. I was thinking... Enslaved hasn't done a tour over here for Vertebrae yet. Unless there's one planned out, how fucking great would it be if these two bands played. I'm HOPING that they don't play at the Palladium but that's where it'd likely be. |

I'm HOPING that they don't play at the Palladium but that's where it'd likely be.i like the way you think. when i heard about primordial's north american tour yesterday, i came close to shitting my pants. i can't wait to see them. i think enslaved would be a great band for them to tour with. |
| _______________________________ [Oct 27,2008 12:06am - eric ""] i just saw them at the way of darkness fest in coburg germany like 3 weeks ago. they were fucking AMAZING i fully support this idea |
| _______________________________________ [Oct 27,2008 12:10am - the_reverend ""] I used to love them and no body knew who they were. it was terrible. |
| ______________________________ [Oct 27,2008 7:27am - Yeti ""] yes. yes this would rule so hard. i can't thank Steve DYA enough for playing "To the Nameless Dead" for me. i was just listening to that this weekend. |
| ______________________________ [Oct 27,2008 7:28am - Yeti ""] Gallow's Hymn is my new favorite song. |
| _______________________________ [Oct 27,2008 8:53am - aril ""] haha, I believe I played Steve DYA "To the Nameless Dead" when it came out. |
| _______________________________ [Oct 27,2008 8:55am - aril ""] still, not many people really know them in the states. not sure if they've gotten enough exposure over here, regardless of being on MetalBlade. I mean, this would be their first US Tour. They played the Heathen Crusade 2 years ago. |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 27,2008 8:57am - the_reverend ""] I'm sorry, primordial is good, but when I posted last night, I was thinking of thy primordial |
| _______________________________ [Oct 27,2008 8:58am - aril ""] thy primordial is great too. |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 27,2008 9:00am - the_reverend ""] yeah, it was when you said metalblade that I smacked my forehead. |
| __________________________________________ [Oct 27,2008 9:03am - corpus_colostomy ""] no irish people live in southy anymore anyways kehd. its all yuppers that work at fidelity and gays..meet me at tha bea gaaahdens dood. |
| _______________________________ [Oct 27,2008 9:06am - aril ""] yea, southie and dorchester are no where as close to being as irish as they used to be. haha |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 27,2008 9:09am - the_reverend ""] they need to rename dorchester chinatown and southie yuppie. They also need to rename eastie to ANYTHING cause when I hear someone say eastie, it makes me want to punch then. I'm looking at you Michelle McPhee, http://www.wtkk.com/Hosts/MicheleMcPhee/tabid/78/Default.aspx |
| __________________________________________ [Oct 27,2008 9:13am - corpus_colostomy ""] eastie could be changed to 'beastie' or 'East LA pendejo,' or where paul kimbal lives. |
| _______________________________ [Oct 27,2008 9:14am - aril ""] is the north end still extremely italian? man, they got some good food up there. |
| __________________________________________ [Oct 27,2008 9:16am - corpus_colostomy ""] meh sorta. north end still has lots of ginnards but its starting to be overshadowed by lots of rich prep girls who have pops foot the bill. you know the ones with the ugg's or the burberry galoshes and the dior frames? |
| _______________________________________ [Oct 27,2008 10:11am - the_reverend ""] street level the northeast is all italian. above that, IDK |
| _________________________________________ [Oct 27,2008 10:24am - DestroyYouAlot ""] Unfortunately, the real Irish people here only listen to bad country and mainstream rap, the fake ones want to listen to DKM, and the ones fresh off the boat listen to techno. Primordial will find no audience, there. |
| _______________________________________ [Oct 27,2008 10:25am - the_reverend ""] IRISH THUNDAAAARRR |
| _______________________________ [Oct 27,2008 10:28am - Yeti ""] Primordial and Thy Primordial should play together. |
| _____________________________________ [Oct 27,2008 10:29am - Kinslayer ""] I went to Celtic Thunder a few weeks back and it was so NOT sold out that we got free ticket upgrades....I thought thtis event would be packed as its all traditional irish and celtic music. |
| ________________________________ [Oct 27,2008 10:35am - aril ""] what you guys are saying is somewhat true and saddens me. But Celtic Thunder? Wish I knew about that. |
| __________________________________ [Oct 28,2008 4:42pm - darkwor ""] "This year has also been had some of the absolute highs I've ever experienced in all my years in the band. The shows have been getting bigger and better but also some of the lows and at times a dark insight into the industry. The herd mentality of so many bands and paradoxically the lack of respect afforded many of them by the industry and the attitude of people who have crossed our paths in the 'overground.' People who never bothered with a band like PRIMORDIAL now court our attention, ask our opinion on things, approach us or attempt to make a quick buck of our back. Perhaps if we were younger and more impressionable 2008 could have turned out far differently. As it was we found our old working practises coming under scrutiny as the band undenaibly grew bigger. As MT from Metal Blade told me, 'All of a sudden now professional demands are being placed upon you.' Professional demands on an unprofessional band. At times the stress has been great, and I can speak for myself and say I've found myself sitting in the backstage circus surrounded by leeches and wondered is it all worth it. However once I set foot on the stage, I find my perspective and find my reason. The metal scene needs us. "I realise we have become almost anti-heroes. The band people take to heart and champion as opposed to a bloated, self-congratualtory, hollow mainstream metal scene that stands for nothing, sings about nothing and bears little resemblance to the original violent and rebellious blueprint of at least for me what is called true metal. Pop music in all but name. I'm glad of that and thank you all for the resistance you have all shown us over the summer. I can see it in the front row and feel it in the energy at the shows. Being on the outside even when you are on the inside is a particularily Irish trait and I think we are glad to be standard bearers for something human and something honest. Anti-heroes it is. We are human and there have been weak moments but they hopefully can only make us stronger. "There is talk of playing in America in 2009 but I really can't confirm anything right now. If we could turn back time ten years, then no doubt we could accept everything that's been offered us but we cannot and can only live within our means. Hopefully we can announce something no matter how small over the coming months. -NEMTHEANGA http://www.primordialweb.com/index2.htm |
| _______________________________ [Oct 28,2008 4:48pm - aril ""] Nemtheanga is the man. but if they don't end up doing this tour, then I think someone should still see if they're willing to play a show or two around here. |
